Description
Chernobyl Roulette: A War Story
Thirty-five days of war at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant in northern Ukraine marked a reckless and unprecedented move by Russian forces during the 2022 invasion. This gripping story, closely reported and narrated from multiple perspectives, reveals the human side of the conflict.
From the foreman who had also worked on the 1986 clean-up to plant workers who found ways to celebrate despite the odds, and Russian officers who were unaware of nuclear reactors, Serhii Plokhy's account sheds light on the bravery and uncertainty of those caught in the middle.
